Steyr Air Cylinder Discharge Screw

Champions Choice carries a discharge screw on cap for FWB cylinders. I don't see one for Steyr air cylinders. I have several Steyr cylinders and would like to be able to discharge them if I need to fly with the pistols. I doubt the FWB discharge screw cap would work. Any idea on where to locate such a discharge cap for a Steyr cylinder or an alternative discharge suggestion?

Thanks.

Mike

Unscrew the filling adaptor from your tank/pump and screw it into the cylinder.
(Won't work with the "Best Fittings" adaptor)

It works, and works well. Once you screw the cylinder so far in, it opens up the that little valve.
